Dear friend of THE TUBE Music Network,

We regret to inform you of the fate that has befallen The Tube Music Network. October 1, 2007 The Tube ceased its national broadcast.

Viewers, Artists, Music Companies, Investors, Business Partners, TV stations, Cable companies, Advertisers , Friends and our creative partners @Radical Media - your support of The Tube has always been highly valued and appreciated. The collective efforts of this team, fueled by the letters we received from viewers, sustained THE TUBE as it struggled through the financial limitations that ultimately contributed to its incapacitated state.

Thank you for inviting The Tube Music Network into your life.

Sincerely,

The Tube Music Network staff

99.99% of American citizens have never heard of "The Tube".

The internet has eliminated the need of a 24/7 video music channel. You can go to Yahoo or YouTube and see just about anything you want.

There's a reason MTV and VH1 are no longer "all about the music".

I don't have the internet on my LCD TV. It was way cool to have The Tube on a DTV subchannel.

I agree with Dave. I know there was a problem trying to get the educational content they needed to operate, but couldn't they have had Sesame Street-like, educational, videos in the mornings or something?
